Steffy: I didn't want to be the one. Ivy had a chance to tell Wyatt, but I
don't think she would have ever confessed, and that's not fair to Wyatt. Look, I
had no intention of telling him, but Ivy gave me no choice.

Liam: No choice?

Steffy: Yeah.

Liam: You had no choice?! Steffy, Steffy, you knew how important this was to
me.

Quinn: No, no, no, no, no. It's not my place to play matchmaker. I'm just an
observant mother who notices things, like how some people are better suited for
each other than others.

Thomas: Okay. Steffy and Liam?

Quinn: Terrible.

Thomas: Wyatt and Ivy?

Quinn: Tolerable... if she really makes him happy. But Steffy... would be a
better fit for him. And...nothing against Liam, but Wyatt...would be a better
fit for your sister.

Thomas: [Chuckles]

Steffy: You're angry.

Liam: Oh, I am -- what did you expect, Steffy, after you did the exact thing
I asked you not to do?

Steffy: I thought you would trust my judgment.

Liam: I thought you would trust mine! It was ivy's business to tell. That's
exactly why she went over to his place. I was with her. She was preparing to
tell him, and now what's gonna happen? What's gonna happen, Steffy? Wyatt is
gonna come home seething, ready to toss Ivy out on her ass. You want to talk
about fair? How is that fair? She deserved the chance to break it to him gently,
to tell him her side of the story, and you robbed her of that. God! Why -- why
do you have to interfere?!

Ivy: I know that you're hurt. Please know that... this wasn't me giving up on
us, okay? It actually had nothing -- it had nothing to do with us.

Wyatt: What?! If you really believe that, I don't even think that I ever
really knew it.

Ivy: Don't say things like that. Don't say things like that! I'm trying to
find the right words to fix things! I'm freaking out here! I don't know what to
do!

Wyatt: Yeah, well, I don't think you can fix it, so...

Ivy: Well, can I at least try?

Wyatt: Why?

Ivy: Because you're important to me and I'm trying to figure out how to make
this work.

Wyatt: No, why... did you turn... to Thomas?

Thomas: You've decided Wyatt and Steffy should be together.

Quinn: I think that they would both be way better off.

[Knock on door]

Pam: Ridge, Steffy, you in he--

Thomas: Uh...no.

Pam: Darn. I was just hoping for an exec.

Thomas: Is there something I can help you with?

Pam: [Sighs] I don't think so. I just got a text from Jake, and he said
that something terrible's happening backstage, like the electrical system is on
fire or something.

Quinn: [Sighs] Liam...is a goody-two-shoes, and he's as annoying as hell,
but I'm not setting any fires around him.

Thomas: Stabbing attempts, though.

Quinn: Ohh.

Thomas: Mm-hmm.

Quinn: Well, you've done your homework. [Sighs] I have no ill will towards
Liam the rescue ranger -- none. But I
will say this -- some women need to be rescued. Your sister isn't one of them.
But the one thing Steffy does need to be rescued from is Liam himself.

Thomas: And you think Wyatt is the man to do that?

[Electricity zaps]

Whoa! Watch out! Let's go down there.

Jake: Yeah. I was not exaggerating.

Yeah. It's a good thing you called, actually.

Jake: So, you can fix it?

I think so.

Steffy: I'm not avoiding the conversation. Let's just see what Jake's text is
about, okay?

Liam: All right. Fine.

[Electricity zaps]

Steffy: [Gasps]

Liam: Oh. Okay. Know what they meant by "problem backstage" now.

Steffy: Whoa! What the heck is going on?

That, uh -- that's what I'm trying to figure out. First thing I need to do is
cut the power, so can you show me where the main breaker is?

Jake: Sure. Sure. You guys mind keeping a watch until we get back?

Liam: Yeah, yeah. No problem.

Steffy: Sure. Sure.

Okay. Just please make sure that nobody gets near this, because it's very
dangerous.

Liam: Yeah, of course. No problem.

Steffy: Okay. Yeah.

Jake: Okay. This way.

Liam: Thank you guys.

You got it.

Steffy: [Chuckles]

Liam: Are you laughing right now?

Steffy: I'm just thinking about the lightning storm the other night. And now
we're guarding this possessed, shorted-out board. I'm just saying, you know,
even when you're mad at me, we still have electricity between us, right?

Liam: [Scoffs]

Steffy: Right?

Liam: You're ridiculous.

[Electricity zaps] Okay. We're going. This is it.

Wyatt: If you really loved me and you loved spending time with me and if I
meant anything to you at all, why would you ever look twice at Thomas -- or any
man, for that matter?

Ivy: I don't know.

Wyatt: Not good enough, Ivy.

Ivy: What do you want me to say? What's the right answer here? Yes, there was
an attraction. Is that it?

Wyatt: Yeah. He's good-looking. He's good-looking, isn't he? But so is every
other model that walks through Forrester. But I'm in what I would like to think
of as a committed relationship, which means I don't let my attractions dictate
the choices that I make. You know what I was saying to my mom when we were in
san Francisco and you were too busy kissing Mr. Abs?

Quinn: Don't do that.

Wyatt: She asked if I was worried -- if I was worried about Thomas flirting
with you, if I was concerned that the two of you were spending the night
together alone under the same roof, and you know what I said? I said, "I trust
her." I told her how good you were to me, how loyal and devoted you were to me.

Ivy: I'm still that person.

Wyatt: Really?

Ivy: Yes. I-I just -- I was a little lost.

Wyatt: Lost?! Again you were lost?! I mean, I believed it the first time,
after everything that happened with Aly and the attack on Steffy and the
blackmail. But I guess it's no anomaly, is it? Because you're lost again. You --
you cheated on me with Thomas! And I bet that wasn't the first time. It wasn't
the only night, right? There were more nights?

Ivy: There were a couple of other kisses.

Wyatt: Oh, my God! Seriously?! Do you want to be with an entitled, spoiled
little brat?!

Ivy: No!

Wyatt: He just wants to sleep around, and that's what you want?! You want to
be with a guy who's just gonna have a one-night stand with you?!

Ivy: Wyatt, I don't want to be with him! I want to be with you! I'm in love
with you! That's what I'm trying to tell you! Just tell me what to do!

Thomas: You might be right. And maybe if things don't work out for Ivy and
Wyatt...

Quinn: Mm-hmm.

Thomas: ...Maybe your wish for Steffy and Wyatt can come true.

[Electricity zapping]

Steffy: [Gasps]

Liam: They've got to get that under control.

Steffy: Yeah. Look, do you still want to talk about this?

Liam: I don't even know what there is to talk about. You went against my
wishes right after telling me you wouldn't.

Steffy: [Sighs] [Gasps]

Liam: Must have had to cut the power.

Steffy: Could have been our moment.

Liam: Are you kidding me right now?

Steffy: I'm playing with you. I'm just playing.

Liam: Well, don't. Don't joke. Don't do anything.

Steffy: [Sighs] Of course. You're the hero.

Liam: That's not -- there you go again, doing the same thing. Typical Steffy.

Steffy: And you know what? Ivy doesn't even need protecting. She needs
protecting from herself. She's the one that cheated on Wyatt. And if it's any
consolation, it's not like I blurted it out. I tried to avoid it, and Wyatt just
pulled it out of me. Should that have happened? They found the breaker?

Liam: None of this should have happened.

Ivy: I know what I did was wrong. I know that. Wyatt, if I could take this
back, I would, but I can't. I can't do that, but what I can do is promise you
that it will never happen again. You have to trust me.

Wyatt: Yeah, "trust" isn't a word you should be using right about now.

Ivy: I've hurt you, and I'm sorry. But I will do anything to figure this out
-- anything. I want to deserve your trust again. I know it's gonna take a lot of
work, but I don't want to lose you.

Wyatt: I mean, I-I was gone for one night -- one night -- and then you turned
to Thomas.

Ivy: I know what I'm asking of you is huge.

Wyatt: You're asking me to constantly look over my shoulder, is what you're
asking me to do -- wonder if some guy that you're attracted to is just gonna say
one nice thing and it's gonna get you into bed.

Ivy: No! Come on, Wyatt!

Wyatt: I thought we had something.

Ivy: We do.

Wyatt: After all that crap that you went through with Liam, you wanted a
relationship that was based on honesty just as much as I did.

Ivy: I do want that.

Wyatt: Really? You knew that I was upset about what Thomas was doing --
flirting with you. But you just laughed it off. You made me feel like there was
nothing wrong, that you had absolutely no interest in him. And that was being
honest with me?

Ivy: I didn't even think I realized at the time.

Wyatt: And then you didn't even have the decency to tell me! I had to find
out from Steffy, of all people!

Ivy: Wait. What did you just say? Did you say Steffy told you?

Wyatt: Yes. Thankfully, yes. She let me in on the whole situation 'cause
she's looking out for me.

Ivy: Steffy told you?! I told her not to say anything.

Wyatt: Really?

Ivy: Oh, my God. I told her to stay out of this and that you needed to hear
this from me first.

Wyatt: Are you seriously upset at Steffy for something you did?!

Ivy: This is none of her business, Wyatt!

Wyatt: She is my friend. She was looking out for me -- something you're not
doing right about now.

Ivy: It is completely self-serving, what she's doing. Why does no one see
this?! This girl doesn't like me! She went to you first because she didn't want
me to have a chance to do it the right way.

Wyatt: Wow.

Ivy: Don't let her win this, Wyatt. Don't. Don't let this end because of her.

Wyatt: She's not the one doing that.

Ivy: Oh, and I am?

Wyatt: Yes.

Ivy: Ohh!

Wyatt: I will not share you with Thomas or any other man, for that matter.
I'm not gonna wonder who you're thinking about when you're with me.

Ivy: That's not gonna happen.

Wyatt: You want Thomas?! You got him.

Liam: I just -- I thought you were done with all the animosity.

Steffy: I'm trying, Liam.

Liam: Well, okay. See, you say that, and then you turn around and you do
something like this. So, you tell me, what am I supposed to think right now?

Steffy: I'm -- I'm just doing what -- what I thought was right.

Liam: I know. I know.

Steffy: Forgive me?

Liam: It's not me you should be asking for forgiveness, Steffy. I mean, Ivy
and Wyatt are the ones suffering right now.

Steffy: Yeah. Judging by his reaction, I'm guessing their relationship is
over. [Gasps]
